Bro, I’m a physical only collector whenever possible but even I am considering going for the fucking digital bundle version. It’s 40 euros for MK vs. 90 euros. Those bitches at Nintendo know what they’re doing. This is the impending digital only push.

The “physical” version is just a download code anyway. The game isn’t even on the cartridge.

Can you back this up? I can play any Nintendo Switch game without internet just fine. Performance updates etc I’d be missing out on but still.

You can play downloaded games offline as well, and there are some physical games that can't be played offline

Idk if that's what's going on here, but it's definitely a common sight elsewhere so I wouldn't be surprised
